T.A.S Corporation has brought pride to Thailand by earning the Bronze Medal at the 50th Geneva Inventions in Switzerland—one of the world’s most prestigious international invention exhibitions. The event featured over 1,000 entries from 40 countries, and TAS Corporation’s recognition marks a significant achievement for the Thai innovation landscape.
TECO Flexshield: An Eco-Friendly Innovation with Practical Impact
The award-winning product, TECO Flexshield, is a high-performance thin-film thermal insulation coating developed by TAS Corporation for use on rooftops and building surfaces. The coating offers superior heat reflection, sound absorption, fire resistance, and exceptional durability against water, acid, and harsh environmental conditions.
The product was evaluated by an international panel of 135 experts, based on three key criteria: innovation, market potential, and environmental sustainability. TECO Flexshield excelled in all categories, receiving high marks across the board.
A Nationally Endorsed Success Story
Before making its international debut, TECO Flexshield had already garnered significant national recognition. It was endorsed by the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) and awarded the Outstanding Invention Award by the National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT). Additionally, it received the Value-Added Innovation Prize from the Ministry of Education of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Mr. Thanakorn Siriwattanalert, Chairman and Managing Director of TAS Corporation, stated:
“This award highlights the capability of Thai innovations to compete at the global level. TECO Flexshield not only meets practical market needs but also aligns with sustainable development goals—an essential trend for the future of the industry.”
Expansion Plans for the Global Market
Following its international recognition, T.A.S Corporation is launching a global communications campaign under the hashtag #TECOtoGeneva. The campaign will leverage multiple media platforms—digital, print, and documentary-style storytelling—to highlight the development and key features of TECO Flexshield.
The company is also preparing to sign Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with The Green World Association and Rajamangala University of Technology Rattanakosin. These partnerships aim to foster collaborative research in eco-friendly materials and technology, while also expanding distribution channels across the machinery and chemical sectors.
Positioning Thailand as a Hub for Sustainable Innovation
This achievement is not only a milestone for TAS Corporation, but also a testament to Thailand’s potential to become a hub for green technology and sustainable industrial solutions. It reflects the growing capability of Thai innovators to meet the needs of global markets.
Mr. Thanakorn further remarked:
“This award belongs to all Thai people who believe in sustainable living and support environmentally responsible innovation.”
The award ceremony was held at Palexpo in Geneva, where Mr. Thanakorn and Ms. Nantita Siriwattanalert officially accepted the honor on behalf of the company.
The international recognition of TECO Flexshield marks a crucial step in elevating Thai innovation on the world stage. It also serves as an inspiration to entrepreneurs, researchers, and academic institutions across Thailand to continue developing technologies that contribute to both economic growth and environmental stewardship.
